RE: [Digital BW] Re: Printing images toned in Photoshop

2006-07-28 by Eric Neilsen Photo

I have been doing a bunch of "hand colored" images with PS for a client.
These are B&W, with either a neutral background or an over all sepia look.
Then individual components are colored selectively with the selective color
tool. Each item is saved asa a selection so that I can go back and recolor
or apply some other correction to it. The down side is that Qimage and IP
don't like channels to print so you need to remember to save without any for
printing unless you are printing through PS directly. Original files are
mostly digital capture with a Canon camera. 

 

I use a 4800 and Qimage for most of that type printing. I let my license to
upgrade to IP 6.1 go for now until I also buy a 7800 as my IP is for a 7XXX
printer.
